Most nodetool commands operate on a single node in the cluster if
-h is not used to identify one or more other nodes. If the node

-h option to identify the target; otherwise, for remote invocation,
identify the target node, or nodes, using -h.

Example:

nodetool -u username -pw password describering demo_keyspace
